These days you hardly know you've had a blood test, painless but I was like you when I was younger the fear is all in your mind and will go with the positive reinforcement you give yourself after the test I.e. tell yourself all fine nothing to worry about.

What I do is to make sure I look the other way when she is about to take the blood and tell her you don't want to watch. Makes it a doddle.

dont worry your in good hands, i go to bournemouth every week for bloods which i have for the last 15 weeks, they are very supportive and kind, just try a relax and dont look, it seems a lot of bloods but each file is only a teaspoon amount, just stay in the seat until you feel ok good luck
